Our Sparkling Home



I have had many people ask me to share photos of our home over the years. I am happy to share this peek into our lives. Our home is simple and functional. I love it so much.

Our home was built in 1926 by Joe's great-grandfather, William Harmon. He build this home entirely by hand, without any power tools. Our kids are the 4th generation in our home and the 9th generation in our town. I love our simple, county home. We have made it our own with an eclectic, colorful, joyful feel. It is reflective of who we are as a family.


Our living room

This used to be a dining room, but we found a better use for it. Now we use it for crafts and music and just a general area for play and fun.

This is the stairway from the upstairs, where the bedrooms are to the downstairs 

This is a reading area

Our country kitchen

Our country bathroom. It is simple and small. I love the clawfoot bathtub. I labored in this tub with Orion.

Another angle of our dining room, turned craft/music/play area

Our beautiful porch.  (my favorite space)

Our playroom over Willow Toys workshop. This is also my teaching studio for my childbirth classes.

I hope you enjoyed this peek into our Sparkling Home! We love to hear your feedback and comments.

~Peace & Love, Dayna

I think your house is so cute, cozy and welcoming. I cannot believe how hateful that other mom was on WifeSwap and the awful things she said about your house.
